Lately, I've been hearing a lot about the health care issue in these United States.
Hearing and reading about all the issues, it made me wonder about the health care plan for members of the U.S. Congress, the U.S. Supreme Court, and all of the Federal Judges. They must have a very comprehensive, moderate cost plan.
It seems to me that there could be an easy solution to this mess, and it would not require a 3,000 page bill.
Why not let anyone have access to the congressional health plan, and at a very reasonable cost? If it is good enough for members of congress, it should be good enough for the rest of us.

THE $50 BILL
I have been a Republican since the first time I could vote, and that was for the late Barry Goldwater.
In case you have not heard, U.S. Representative Patrick McHenry,
R–NC, (224 Cannon House Office Building, Washington, DC 20515) submitted a bill to the House of Representatives, (HR4705), to kick President Grant off the $50 bill, and replace him with President Reagan...!!
When I heard that, I thought what the F**K was that guy smoking?
From the time he graduated from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, to the day he died, President Ulysses S. Grant had a very distinguished career. Plus, after the Civil War, he led the efforts of reunification, and helped rebuild the Republican Party in the South.
If Representative McHenry wants to honor President Reagan, maybe it should be on a new denomination, perhaps a $75 bill.
President Grant deserves to remain on the $50 bill. If you agree, please write a letter to Representative McHenry. Sorry, but you can’t send him an email unless you live in his district.
With all the things that could improve our nation, this is the best this guy can imagine?

Hello all...
As you might know, U.S. Senator Jim Bunning, R-KY blocked the extension of unemployment benefits. Regardless of his reasons, this is a very uncaring, mean-spirited thing to do, to deny some income to people who really need it.
Here is my comment to him. I urge everyone to write him a letter or send him an email asking him to change his position.
Hello Senator Bunning,
I've been a Republican since the first time I could vote, and that was for Barry Goldwater. Over the years, the GOP has had a transition to an uncaring party of the elite. President Bush promised a kinder, gentler, Republican Party, but never delivered on that promise.
Now you, as one person, blocked extending unemployment benefits to people who need them. Most people who are receiving benefits, did not make the choice to get fired or laid off. The vast majority of them are desperately seeking a job, even in jobs where they have no qualifications, or that are well below their education and experience.
By ending the unemployment insurance benefits, there is an almost immediate risk of increased foreclosures.
Also, your action to deny extending these benefits, will put many people at risk of becoming homeless within as little as 45 days.
I doubt that is what you intended, but those are distinctly possible outcomes.
Please reconsider your position and vote to extend the benefits.
